The Chronicle of Salaš

Šimon Gogola / Czech Republic / 2026 / World Premiere / 10 min.


synopsis

At a meeting of Salaš residents gathered around historical chronicles, the question arises of what is important to record from the present and preserve for future generations. Opinions differ, yet the chronicle inevitably creates only a single image and legacy of the village. The film thus follows not only the lives of individuals, but also the lives that emerge between them.
